Chapter 6885 Sudden Turn of Events

Yan Sheng never imagined the grand formation the Deep Earth Sect spent thousands of years building in secret would be destroyed.

The Deep Earth Sect had set their sights on this battlefield long ago. To keep other factions from noticing, they built the formation in secret.

Yan Sheng believed the formation would easily defeat Long Chen. Now he saw that just blocking one attack from Long Chen had already pushed it to its limit.

BOOM!

When Long Chen’s foot landed, the barrier shattered. A wave of pressure hit Yan Sheng, slamming him into the ground. He couldn’t move and coughed up blood.

Everyone was stunned. At first, the formation made them worry about Long Chen, but now, it was clear the two fighters were not even on the same level.

Even with the millipede and the formation, Yan Sheng was still defeated.

“I told you. Amongst all the people who have formally challenged me, you are the weakest. Now, do you believe it?” Long Chen said.

Long Chen didn’t attack further. He looked at Yan Sheng with a calm expression. In that moment, Long Chen seemed almost godlike, while Yan Sheng looked weaker than an ant.

When Long Chen first said that, everyone except Zheng Wenlong and Li Chenggang thought he was just provoking Yan Sheng. Now, it seemed he was right.

“Damn you! You’re too arrogant! I haven’t lost yet!” Yan Sheng shouted, crawling up.

Yan Sheng was soaked in blood, but his eyes were bloodshot, looking as if he had gone crazy.

People were startled by what they saw. Even after such a heavy blow, Yan Sheng didn’t seem badly hurt. It looked like he still had tricks left.

“Of course, you haven’t lost yet. You have at least two more trump cards. Why do you think I stopped?” Long Chen said. “However, you really didn’t prepare properly. If I really wanted to kill you just now, you wouldn’t even have a chance to use those trump cards.”

Everyone stared at Yan Sheng in shock.

Meanwhile, Yan Sheng’s pupils shrank. He was finally afraid. However, this terror drove his anger to new heights.

Countless runes gathered, and blood-colored runes ignited around him.

“Devil Flame Possession!” he roared.

As the blood-colored runes burned around Yan Sheng, wild Sovereign might raged. Yan Sheng’s body changed shape in the flames. His round body stretched out, and his black hair turned scarlet.

“Heavens, this aura...!”

“It definitely is the aura of a double manifestation Divine Sovereign! How is this possible?!” Chi Yunfeng exclaimed, shocked. “Wait, no, this aura doesn’t belong to Yan Sheng!”

Chi Yunfeng suddenly looked at the ground and shouted, “Brother Long Chen, the Deep Earth Sect is truly shameless! Two double manifestation Divine Sovereigns are hidden underground and lending their strength to Yan Sheng!”

Chi Yunfeng’s shout echoed across the battlefield, causing an uproar. Everyone knew Yan Sheng was shameless, but now it was clear that the whole Deep Earth Sect was shameless to no end.

This was supposed to be a fair fight, but first a contracted beast showed up, then a grand formation, and now there were even two double manifestation Divine Sovereigns hidden underground. Yan Sheng was taking shamelessness to a new level.

“Ants are ultimately just ants. Even if they become double manifestation Divine Sovereigns, they are still ants,” Long Chen said indifferently.

Yan Sheng’s aura continued to climb, but Long Chen didn’t stop him.

With every breath, Yan Sheng’s aura grew dozens of times stronger. Most frightening of all, it now had a wild, devilish feel.

Suddenly, Yan Sheng appeared right in front of Long Chen. His fist, wrapped in blood-red flames, slammed toward Long Chen.

In response, Long Chen raised his hand to block, and both were knocked back.

“Yan Sheng’s power has grown to the point where he can directly clash with Long Chen!"

The two double manifestation Divine Sovereigns still didn’t appear. If Chi Yunfeng was right, they had to be the Deep Earth Sect’s Yan Jiang and Yan Hai.

“Long Chen, don’t even think about leaving this place alive!” shouted Yan Sheng.

Yan Sheng seemed possessed by a devil. Blood-red flames surrounded him. Even his voice had changed, and every word sounded like a devil’s growl.

No one had ever seen Yan Sheng like this. He seemed to have left behind all traces of humanity.

His voice felt like a curse that reached into people’s souls, bringing out their deepest fears.

Long Chen looked at Yan Sheng amidst the flames. “It seems it really is as I suspected. That millipede was just a stepping stone for you. Although it was a failure, it successfully allowed you to grasp the discarnate will of the two ancient experts from the primal chaos era. Using your Deep Earth Sect’s earth energy, you tried to absorb that earth attribute expert’s will, and then used the millipede as bait to try to capture the discarnate soul of the outsider devil.

“You aimed to bind their power together and subdue them for your own purposes, but you failed. That earth attribute expert wasn’t willing to form any connection with you, but that outsider devil was glad to be used by you. As a result, you abandoned that millipede and instead tried to form a contract with that outsider devil. You really are ambitious. As long as you control its discarnate soul, you could leap past the Divine Sovereign realm and directly become a Heavenly Sovereign.”

Shocked gasps echoed through the crowd. The ambitions of the Deep Earth Sect were truly insane. It was no surprise that those adventurers who had entered Broken Heaven Mountain mysteriously disappeared over the years. It seemed the Deep Earth Sect was behind it, fearing their plans would be exposed.

Yan Sheng raised his head and laughed. “Hahaha! I really want to cut open your head and see what’s inside! To think that you could even see through my intention...”

Long Chen took a deep breath and said, “Since you are possessed by the outsider devil’s discarnate soul and supported by two double manifestation Divine Sovereigns, I think I can unleash my full power without it being considered bullying.”

The Earth Dao essence rune on Long Chen’s forehead ignited. As violet qi exploded out of him, a tiny cross flashed on his palm.

BOOM!

Suddenly, all the violet qi around Long Chen disappeared, forcibly compressed into the tiny cross on his palm.

“Violet Blood Infinity-One—God Slaying Cross!”

Long Chen unleashed his palm, and a giant cross slashed toward Yan Sheng.

BOOM!

A loud thunderous noise echoed. The lone cross appeared to have the power to erase all existence, making everyone feel the scent of death.

“Blazing Devil Blood Rune Shield!”

Yan Sheng let out a furious roar and crossed his arms in front of him. Blood-colored runes converged in front of his body, forming a giant shield.

BOOM!

The blazing cross mercilessly struck this shield. Yan Sheng was like an ant crushed beneath a carriage wheel. He fell to the ground.

As the dust settled, it became clear that the entire battlefield had been split into four parts. A distinct cross was marked on the ground.

“Yan Sheng’s aura is gone... Did he die?” asked someone.

Suddenly, the earth exploded, and two wretched figures came flying out, carrying Yan Sheng who was on his last breaths.

“Yan Jiang, Yan Hai?”

Countless people cried out in shock. Those two were the Deep Earth Sect’s top experts. One was Yan Sheng’s father, and the other was his uncle.

The truth was now fully exposed. Although Chi Yunfeng had exposed them before, not everyone believed him immediately. But now, they knew for sure.

“Long Chen, you bastard, how dare you injure my son?! Don’t blame me for bullying a junior!” Yan Jiang roared, looking like he was about to personally attack Long Chen.

The spectators were shocked.

The two of them were supporting Yan Sheng the entire time. Now that they were exposed, their embarrassment transformed into rage.

“If you wish to bully a junior, don’t blame my Flame God Sect for not giving you any face!”

Just then, Chi Yunfeng appeared on the battlefield.

“How fun. How can my Spirit Heart Sect miss such an event? I, Yue Tianming, will also join you!”

Yue Tianming also appeared on the battlefield.

Yue Tianming’s arrival was not too shocking. After all, he was a double manifestation Divine Sovereign.

However, when Chi Yunfeng appeared, a huge shock spread. When did he become a double manifestation Divine Sovereign? That was major news.

This time, Chi Yunfeng was not hiding his aura. A divine flame burned around him, and he was clearly telling everyone that he was a double manifestation Divine Sovereign.

This was his chance to show the power of the Flame God Sect. If he didn’t take action now, he would be a fool. Seeing everyone’s shocked expressions, Chi Yunfeng knew he had achieved his goal.

With this, once this matter was over, he would be able to get his revenge. He would settle their debts one by one.

The Deep Earth Sect’s experts immediately appeared on the battlefield as well, led by Yan Mingqi.

“Flame God Sect, Spirit Heart Sect, you really are brazen. Do you know who is behind us? By challenging my Deep Earth Sect, I wouldn’t be surprised if your two sects are destroyed overnight!” shouted Yan Mingqi.

Everyone was stunned. What should have been a fair fight between two people had now turned into an all-out war between these three factions.

“Seniors, thank you for your good intentions. I can still handle things for now, so please step aside. If I really need your aid, I will definitely ask,” said Long Chen.

Long Chen surprised everyone once again. After all, it seemed like he was going to face the Deep Earth Sect alone. It was important to remember that they had three double manifestation Divine Sovereigns.

Hearing this, Chi Yunfeng was a bit apprehensive. But after exchanging a look with Yue Tianming, they both stepped back.

Long Chen turned to Yan Mingqi and the others, shaking his head.

“You relied on medicinal pills to overcome your bottlenecks and used the Heavenly Music Art to burn away your future potential for this breakthrough. Although you now have an inner and outer manifestation, they are severely flawed. This is the first time I have seen such weak double manifestation Divine Sovereigns.”

Using medicinal pills to break through? Heavenly Music Art?

The spectators’ eyes widened. No wonder the Deep Earth Sect had produced three double manifestation Divine Sovereigns in just two generations.

“Brat, you talk a lot! Die!” Yan Mingqi shouted, waving his hand.

His two sons passed the unconscious Yan Sheng to others and prepared to attack.

However, Long Chen kept his hands clasped behind his back, simply watching.

Just then, a shocking turn of events occurred. Everyone from the Deep Earth Sect, including Yan Mingqi, spat out blood. Terrifying black qi then burst out of their bodies.

Their skin bubbled and rotted, while the weaker ones instantly turned into a pile of dregs. The Deep Earth Sect’s experts screamed.

“AHH!”

The stronger experts could resist for a while, but it was ultimately useless. They quickly rotted away as well.

“Damn... you... the contract...”

Yan Mingqi made hand seals and attempted to resist, but his fingers quickly decayed, causing his hand seals to fail. Black spots appeared across his face, and he soon rotted down to the bone.

At this time, the unconscious Yan Sheng suddenly roared. When his eyes opened, a devilish smile appeared on his face.

Yan Sheng said, “To form a contract with a devil, you really are foolish. Did you think that a contract based on this world’s laws could bind the great Heavenly Devil race?”

“You...!”

Yan Mingqi tried to speak, but his body collapsed just like everyone else.

In just a few breaths, the Deep Earth Sect’s millions of elites were dead. This scene left everyone completely horrified, and they all retreated.

Even Chi Yunfeng, Yue Tianming, and the others were shocked. This was something they had never imagined, and they stared at Yan Sheng in terror.

At this moment, the dregs of flesh on the ground suddenly surged toward Yan Sheng. A pressure greater than what a double manifestation Divine Sovereign could possess suddenly radiated through the battlefield.

This pressure filled the world, forcing countless experts to their knees. The pressure was so great that they felt like their bones would shatter.

“Damn, the Deep Earth Sect has provoked a calamity! They’ve released a terrifying devil!”

Thinking of how they would be reduced to dregs and absorbed just like the Deep Earth Sect, many experts shouted in despair.

This terrifying pressure was something even divine sons and daughters like Chi Yutong couldn’t resist. They quickly retreated, and they had to use the power of their essence runes just to move under this pressure.

“You are called Long Chen, right? I have to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how much longer it would take to pull off my possession plan. Tell me, how should I thank you?” Yan Sheng said.

Yan Sheng looked at Long Chen with a sinister grin, his eyes filled with unmatched cruelty.
